Holman for the Senate,

Judge Holman, the great objector, has
Senatorial aspirations. He is being led
to think by admiring friends that he can
succeed Senator Harrison in the United
States Senate. The contest in Indiana
for the Senatorship is gong to DE very
close one between the Democrats sAd
Republicans. Both parties think they
have the Legislature, and while there Is
no doubt that the Democrats haYea legitI-
mate majority on joint ballot The Re-
publcans are planning to unseat enough
Democrats to give control of the Legisla-
ture to their party.
In the kind of a contest that is
promised, Mr.. Holman would, perhaps,
be the best man the Democrats could
select for candidate. If there are waver.
ing Democrats or doubtful Independents
in the Legislature Mr.. Holman, ON account
of his recognized honesty and thorough
sincerity, would probably command their
support.
Mr.. Holman would be missed in the
House. Doubtless there are many there
VINO would gladly miss him. He keeps

There are occasions, however, when his
objections are harmful rather than bene-
fetal. He hasn't always time to make
himself acquainted with measures for
which appropriations are asked, and his
objections, often interposed without good
reason, delays or defeats them. He
seems determined to maintain his
reputation as an director, however, even
at the risk of making mistake now and
then. In tAasHesdais objections could

The Doctrine of Probation.

The recent trial of the AndOver profess
sors and the shaking up which the Ando-
yer creed is getting are calling from the
pulpit good many expressions of opinion
respecting the question of probation after
DEATH Mr., Beecher, who, perhaps, is ad-
mitted to be one of the ablest preachers
OF the present day, had something to say
on this subject last Sunday.
Referring to the Andover trial and the
chief of the issues which are being dis
cussed by those engaged IN 1t be said:
"Men are up in arms over the problem OF
probation after death. What a sch0olbOy
question! What a pickaninny matter |!
We shall find after death that we are all
imperfect; that death is but a step for
ward in the great life. over beyond The
grave God is preparing rules for us. We
may be fitted for this life, but there are
changed conditions there to which we
must conform. That we must be taught
at some intermediary place, some half
way house between this world and final
Immortality, there is no doubt. People
say they want proof OF this, but l cannot

Heaven il not a place where angels
stand around like wax figures and
sing hallelujah. Death is a swelling OF a
seed which lay upon this earth; it is the
bursting Of bud in April; it is the enter
ing upon summer; it is The going out of a
prison house. Christianity, after 1900
years, ought to have taught men that ii

THE DEATH OF THE GOVERNOR.

The long and agonizing suspense that
has prevailed since it was announced that
Governor Washington Bartlett was stricken
with death, is ended, and the patient man
has ceased from his suferings. The
REcoRD-UNIoN has already spoken OF
Governor Bartlett as it felt. He was,
though briefly in office, good Executive,
and, had his life been spared, would IN
questionably have administered the affairs
of this State with distinguished ability,
and with honor to its people and himself
What We have already said of Governor
Bartlett his death emphasizes, and we can
not with any deeper sincerity or profounder
sorrow speak of this deplorable loss to the
State, than we have already done. A
good man, conscientious Executive, a
patriotic citizen, whom the people worthily
honored, is dead, and the entire State
mourns its loss.

THE FAIR AND ogR OWN PEOPLE

In treating of the State Fair and its
benefits, it is most generally looked at
from the standpoint that has the stranger
in view as the person most to be impressed
by the exposition. While this is an en-
tiIely correct view to take of the fair, it
should not be lost sight eff that our own
people can be greatly benefited by their
observations at the fair. The San Fran
cisco Examiner has been among the most
recent of journals that have pointed out
this fact 1t yesterday well said; But
the benefit is very considerable to the citi-
zen of California who has the privilege of
visiting such an exhibition. Aside alto
gether from the opportunity afforded of so
cial intercourse and exchange OF ideas with
the rest of the people of the State which
he enjoys there, the visitor cannot fail to
learn that he must necessarily profit
from seeing the results of the industry or
skill of the exhibitors, and he will be slow
indeed and exceptionally lacking in intel
hgence and ambition if he be not melted to
the adoption of better methods and more
improved systems of carrying on his work,
in whatever department of the wide fen
of industry he is a toiler.r
